Mitchell made his season debut with Chicago on Oct. 13 vs. COL and registered a helper.
The Chicago Blackhawks host the New York Islanders in their home opener tomorrow at 7 p.m. CT at the United Center. That game can be seen nationally on ESPN, heard on WGN Radio and, in Spanish, on TUDN, Univision Sports Radio 1200 AM.
